<p>To allow users to customize the behavior of your extension, you may wish to provide an options page. If you do, a link to it will be provided from the extensions management page at chrome://extensions. Clicking the Options link opens a new tab pointing at your options page.
<h2>Step 1: Declare your options page in the manifest</h2>
<pre>{
"name": "My extension",
...
<b>"options_page": "options.html"</b>,
...
}</pre>
<h2>Step 2: Write your options page</h2>
Here is an example options page:
<pre>
<html>
<head><title>My Test Extension Options</title></head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Saves options to localStorage.
function save_options() {
var select = document.getElementById("color");
var color = select.children[select.selectedIndex].value;
localStorage["favorite_color"] = color;
// Update status to let user know options were saved.
var status = document.getElementById("status");
status.innerHTML = "Options Saved.";
setTimeout(function() {
status.innerHTML = "";
}, 750);
}
// Restores select box state to saved value from localStorage.
function restore_options() {
var favorite = localStorage["favorite_color"];
if (!favorite) {
return;
}
var select = document.getElementById("color");
for (var i = 0; i < select.children.length; i++) {
var child = select.children[i];
if (child.value == favorite) {
child.selected = "true";
break;
}
}
}
</script>
<body onload="restore_options()">
Favorite Color:
<select id="color">
<option value="red">red</option>
<option value="green">green</option>
<option value="blue">blue</option>
<option value="yellow">yellow</option>
</select>
<br>
<button onclick="save_options()">Save</button>
</body>
</html>
</pre>
<h2>Important notes</h2>
<ul>
<li>We plan on providing some default css styles to encourage a consistent look across different extensions' options pages. You can star <a href="http://crbug.com/25317">crbug.com/25317</a> to be notified of updates.</li>
</ul>
